You'll Need:
✅ 150g sourdough starter (discard works)

✅ Zest of 2 lemons
✅ ¼ cup lemon juice
✅ 1 tsp vanilla

✅ 1 tsp baking powder
✅ ½ tsp baking soda
✅ ½ tsp salt
Quick Method:
1️⃣ Whisk all the wet ingredients together.
2️⃣ Mix all the dry ingredients together.
3️⃣ Combine wet + dry. Stir until smooth. Don't overmix.
4️⃣ Pour into a lined cake pan.
5️⃣ Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35–40 minutes.
6️⃣ Cool.
7️⃣ Dust with powdered sugar.
8️⃣ Slice. Eat. Wonder why you've never made this before. 🍋✨
Baker's Warning:
One slice turns into:
"I'll just have another tiny piece..."
...and suddenly half the cake is gone. 😅
